Currency Strength Matrix

THE ONLY CURRENCY STRENGTH INDICATOR THAT IS BASED ON PRICE ACTION. DESIGNED FOR TREND, MOMENTUM & REVERSAL TRADERS

This indicator reads price action to confirm trend and strength. Advanced multi-currency and multi-time frame indicator that shows you simply by looking at one chart, every currency pair that is trending and the strongest and weakest currencies driving those trends.

For full details on how to use this indicator, and also how to get our latest chart tool FREE, please see user manual HERE.

This indicator intelligently reads the price action of 28 currency pairs simultaneously in any time frame in real time, so you always know the strongest and weakest currencies to pair together. Currency Strength Matrix establishes a currencies true strength by reading price action and cyclicity to determine trend, the only true method for identifying trend.

The most important factor in currency trading is each currencies relative strength. A major benefit currency traders have over traders of other markets, is that YOU can pre-select which currencies they wish to pair together to give YOU the highest probability for a successful outcome. Without understanding a currencies core strength, the pairings you choose are less likely to succeed.

Currency Strength Matrix works with 8 major currencies (USD, EUR, JPY, GBP, AUD, CAD, NZD & CHF) which combined make a total of 28 currency pairs which you can trade using this indicator (check our screenshots below for full pairs list).

Each currency is ranked from +7 to -7 in each time frame. +7 indicating that a currency is in an uptrend against all 7 other major currencies with -7 indicating it is in a downtrend against all 7 other major currencies. The scores change when a new trend is created or an existing trend is broken.

How to trade using the Currency Strength Matrix

Currency Strength Matrix can be used in conjunction with any existing trend strategy. Currency strength precedes a strategy, which means it will help you choose which pair to trade before implementing your existing strategy.

Tips.

Pair together a strong currency with positive scores of 5, 6 or 7, with a weak currency with negative scores of -5, -6 or -7. These conditions will ensure you always trading with the existing trend.

Pair a currency crossing up through the 0 line, meaning it is increasing in strength, with another currency crossing down through the 0 line, meaning it is increasing in weakness. These conditions will have you trading at the midpoint of new trends.

For early entry into new trends look to pair a strong currency which is losing strength (was a 7 and dropped to 6) with a weak currency gaining strength (a -7 that has just increase to -6). These conditions are the most aggressive but will have you trading right at the beginning of new trends.

Indicator parameters

Draw Labels: You can choose to turn off all currency scores and Matrix table and just use the indicator lines.

Draw Matrix: This setting allows you to turn on and off the Matrix table on its own. When set to true it will show on the top right corner of your chart.

Label font size: You can choose the size of text in the Matrix table and currency scores.

Currency Label Color (for grid): This sets the color of the currency titles in X and Y axis of Matrix grid.

Data Label Color (for grid): This sets the color of the scores in Matrix grid.

How many bars to calculate: Set how many bars should be calculated and this will set how far the indicator lines extend back in history. You can increase this number if you wish for backtesting. We recommend a minimum of 50 bars.

ATR multiplier for over-sized detection: This has been added to eliminate any anomaly/over-sized bars from the chart (over-sized bars greater than chosen ATR will not be counted in cycles analysis) so that we can still focus on the true cycles. The default is 3x ATR, but this can be amended to take into account larger or smaller bars. We recommend 3 as a starting point for all users. ATR 14 is the setting used.

Initial calculation frequency: This is the speed in which the 300 bars are read on first load. Can be adjusted between 1 and 10 seconds.

Final calculation frequency: This is the frequency in which the indicator checks price action for changes in cycles and therefore scores after all bars have been fully loaded.

I used many similar tools and problem is always the same. What period/settings to set? Market is dynamic and always changing. There are so many currency strength indicators out there based on "secret" indicators, proprietary indicators and standard indicators and they all will LOSE money in the long run because even if you manage to find profitable settings then after market dynamics change losing will be your undesired friend again. The only "thing" which works under ALL market conditions is? Correct. PRICE ACTION! No need to look for optimal settings EVER. NO need to optimize anything ever! This indicator will work forever under ALL market conditions, pairs, TFs etc... The only currency strength indicator you will ever need! An absolute Masterpiece! A true game changer. Example Strategy: Look for pairs which show Base currency is stronger than quote currency on H4,D1 AND W1. Now look for entry on M5-H1 TFs and buy low and sell high here! Best indicator in the market! Period.

The Currency Strength Indicator is very useful for identifying trends and as a check for ensuring that you do not trade currencies that are both strong or weak. It can be different with different brokers but this is down to spreads and is not a fault of the Indicator. I am now incorporating it into my trading plan for Forex and it becomes the starting point for any trades that I will make. Best regards, Paul

I purchased this last night and used the indicator during the NY session. Since I'm a correlation junkie, Raymond made a pure work of genius!! I've seen so many currency indicators but this is the best I've ever seen. I trade anywhere from the Daily down to the 15 min. Simply put, you are covered here. I had 4 winning trades today that added 7% to my account balance. I knew what pairs to trade at any given time. If this had alerts, it would be perfection. I'm going to crush the market with this!! Thank you Raymond!!!

This is a great tool!! a must have for serious traders..Trend(✔) Momentum(✔) Strength(✔) in combination with price action structure and weekly/monthly pivots.. stress free trading indeed. Thanks Raymond for this great tool.

This is unfortunate that I have to leave one star but I have to. The indicator itself (when it actually works) is great. However, it continuously disappears from my charts. Not the entire indicator just the most important aspects of it. I would give this indicator five stars if I would stay on my chart for longer than a day. It works on only a select number of charts and will not appear on the others. The sad part is that I had it on every chart that I use and then out of nowhere it all went blank. It will just show "Grid analysis" and nothing else. So the indicator is there I just cannot see it. I have deleted, re-downloaded and tried many other things as well with no luck. So bottom line is that even a crappy indicator is better than this one since I can rarely see it. If somehow this problem is fixed and it works consistently then I will post another review. But for now I would save my hundred dollars if I were you.

Been utilising this indicator for a few months now. A valuable tool to have at your disposal and assists in identifying strength/weakness over different time frames. One of the more reliable and detailed indicators that I have used.

Very well thought out indicator for strength and weakness. Far superior to others I have used in the past. Great for Trend continuation trades as well as trend reversals. Has been an excellent add on to my trading strategy, by keeping me out of bad trades and keeping me in good ones. Thanks
